Common Tanzania tourist e-visa issues and solutions in 2025

The Tanzania tourist e-visa system occasionally experiences technical difficulties that can affect travelers' application process. We at iVisa understand these challenges and provide comprehensive support to ensure a smooth application experience. Here's what you need to know about common issues and their solutions.

Understanding Tanzania e-visa system requirements

• A valid passport with at least six months validity
• Clear digital passport photograph
• Proof of travel arrangements
• Sufficient funds for your stay

The Tanzania Tourist eVisa allows you to enter the country through designated airports or land crossings and explore the country for 90 days. This eVisa lists your travel and personal information that you must print out and present at immigration.

Common technical issues and solutions

• Payment processing errors
• Website accessibility problems
• Application form submission failures

Sometimes, it can be challenging to navigate government websites and fill out forms in a language you don't know, so we're here to help. That is why at iVisa, you can fill out any visa application in the language you prefer. Our experts will double-check your application to make sure you haven't made a mistake that will delay the process.

Pro Tip: Many travelers report success using a VPN when experiencing website access issues. However, using iVisa's platform eliminates the need for such workarounds.
